Hi, reader. I wrote this in 2012 and it's now more than five years old. So it may be very out of date; the world, and I, have changed a lot since I wrote it! I'm keeping this up for historical archive purposes, but the me of today may 100% disagree with what I said then. I rarely edit posts after publishing them, but if I do, I usually leave a note in italics to mark the edit and the reason. If this post is particularly offensive or breaches someone's privacy, please contact me.
Post a clever and funny joke in the comments?

Two economists are walking down the street. <br/>One of them spots a C-note in the ground. "Hey, there's a hundred-dollar bill!" <br/>"Don't be ridiculous," the other one says. "If there were a hundred-dollar bill lying on the ground, someone would've long since picked it up."

(From my dad reading the Filipino newspaper over lunch; Pinoys have a long habit of making fun of themselves and the state of their country, because what else do you do?)
What's the difference between corrupt politicians in the Philippines and corrupt politicians in America?
Corrupt American politicians go to jail. Corrupt Filipino politicians go to America.

I met the abominable snowman the other day, but I didn't know what to say to him. I didn't know the yeti-iquette.

Thank you so much! I enjoyed all of these. And I think the first joke there (on white and brown sugar) was a joke about racism rather than a racist joke.

To be honest, I came up with the joke while baking cookies requiring both white and brown sugar and the inspiration just came to me. I sincerely hope it is a joke about racism rather than a racist joke.
Fun post, Sumana!

Here is one I liked, from my three weeks attempting to learn Lojban:
Q: How many Lojbanists does it take to change a broken light bulb?
A: Two: one to decide what to change it into, and one to figure out what kind of bulb emits broken light.
John: What's the difference between brown sugar and white sugar? The curse of the cane?
(Hope that's not racist!)
